    Good luck!

    Thank you! The biggest question now is which class of T5cc do you select 25% for when you have 0 6* :D

    What I’m thinking of doing to work it out, is just listing all of the champs I’d be happy to pull as my first 6* and seeing which one has the higher odds of me pulling a good class. Then I’ll select that class. Unlikely to make a massive difference, but who knows, could be the finest of margins for the future of the account lol

    Thank you by the way, I’m glad there’s people enjoying it! I’m loving doing it, so it’s nice to share :)

    Since this challenge is for thronebreakeer, ideally you choose selectors for the first class you get. But not possible seeing how the rewards are gained in cosmic horror

    Depends on your priorities. Do you want a good first r3? Do you what you suggested. Do you want an early r3? Get the class that has most champions in the basic

    Grats on the sorcerer, she’s gonna be extremely helpful

    morningstar could potentially work for CB, ramp her up on the path and then you can life steal with sp1's to survive the poison (or just get willpower to make it easier) and if you can heal up enough, you could throw some sp2s to nullify his regen + buffs.

    She would probably do better than HB since she doesn't rely on debuffs to do damage

    Yeah you know what, that could work. Losing 100% life from poison means I only need one proc of regen to survive it, then over the fight I can keep topped up. I think when she’s levelled up I should be able to out damage some of the healing, and with my life steal and perfect block it wouldn’t hurt too much pushing him to Sp2

    The main issue would be if I died I’d need to revive and heal to 100% health which could be costly, but if I don’t get better options at least she’s there!

    That’s a good shout mate thanks.

    Enjoyable read! Thanks!

    I find iso and gold to be a problem on my mini especially when I don’t do any arenas. I have many good champs and catalysts for them but not enough gold or iso to rank them up.

    Yep, I mean I’m not even past ranking 5*s to rank 3 and I’m having ISO struggles. I think it’s just part of the package. With my main account I have time to run arena, I get plenty of 4* dupes from side quest, EQ, alliance events etc but I don’t have time for the mini.

    Iso is definitely going to be a problem going forward but all it will do is slow me down, not road block me.

    @JoshKosh557 I've just realised she definitely will not work for Crossbones, and it's not anything to do with the fight itself, but how am I gonna ramp her up? The quest has power struggle, so I can't get to an Sp3 unless the opponent get's to an Sp3. In which case I'd need to have 5 fights where I manage to KO the opponent with an SP3, but the chances of doing that 5 times in a row, anti-baiting the opponent's specials in just the right way to accomplish that - I just don't know if that's realistic. Am I missing something?

    That red hulk is a good option for Xb, he can get to a lot of damage as well
  • Ace2319Ace2319 Member Posts: 619 ★★★
    This featured crystal has quite a few amazing champs so just one might not hurt and you’re getting 5* shards pretty fast. I would watch some videos if you decide to do it

    Yeah for sure, he’s not a bad option at all. I’m definitely happy to have him as a backup option for Xbones if I don’t get anyone else

    I’ll definitely have to consider it over the next week or two, I’m not sure if it’s worth spending the extra 5k shards just yet

    don't honestly
    you should easily just stick to basics for the time being
    For now, I think I agree. Maybe towards the end of the featured when I’ve bulked up my 5* roster

    We will see if any of the champs from the pool get cool buffs, that might sway me

    I hadn’t seen this post till today but decided to read through all the weekly updates because I completely agree with your position on thronebreaker not being that hard to get anymore. I’m going to continue following this thread because I find it interesting but I had a couple things I wanted to say now.

    First is you made a comment on one of the early weeks about being concerned that miles in the hero variant might be more difficult now than previously because of his buff. As someone who didn’t have the best counter to him and did some exploration before the buff and some after, he’s way easier after because you no longer need an evade counter if you don’t throw specials and even if you do some of the best cosmic champions have a miss counter. I had a lot of trouble with that quest before the buff, which is why I hadn’t explored all of it, but after I had a lot less difficulty and mainly used wasp and CGR.

    Which leads me to my second comment; wasp is awesome and you’re going to love that pull. I originally ranked up her so that she could be viable for act 6 when I brought her along because of the ghost synergy, but my goodness have I used her so much since. She’s my main clearer for uncollected eq since at rank 5 she finishes all of the fights in the first two chapters in two combos. I’ve used her for more than I would have ever guessed in act 6 and 7. She also carried so much of the load in the last chapter of v7. I say this all because I want to make sure that you don’t overlook her when you pull more good 5 and 6 star science champions especially since this is a mini account that is meant for you to have fun.

    This ended up being way longer than I expected when I first started writing it; sorry about that. I wanted to end by saying good luck on the rest of this adventure, you’ve got a solid base for the future and I can’t wait to follow as you go.

    Welcome! Glad to have you along for the ride.

    That's good to hear about the hero variant Miles being easier, I guess I'm a little annoyed now, because when I did the quest on my main I used vision Aarkus to solo Miles every time. And I have a 4* Aarkus on the mini, so he would have been perfect. But I suppose you're right, I'll just need a good science/cosmic champ who doesn't need to use their specials! I also think that leads me on quite nicely to your next point, while Wasp's specials are nice to have, she still puts out some good damage with her heavy attack!

    I do definitely want to rank wasp up, I think she'll be a lot of use and has some nice utility with her playstle meaning not needing to block much, if at all. Plus concussion and petrify (much more useful against Mystics with the extra potency). My one issue with rank ups is how many t1 alphas I need, plus ISO and gold. It's hard to rank champions up especially this early on, so I do have to be a little conservative. And since I may be ranking Rhulk up to handle Xbones in 6.1, my science cats could be heading towards him. But we will see, Wasp remains a champ I want to rank up!

    Are you running AQ on your mini? It’ll help with the alpha shortage a lot

    Yeah I’m in an alliance with a few guys on the forum, and we just have a map 1 running each week I hop in and do a bit. I could get a lot more if I did it more seriously, but I have my main account going as well

    Level up that Moon Knight boy
  • BitterSteelBitterSteel Member Posts: 9,264 ★★★★★

    Level up that Moon Knight boy

    I’m gonna go ahead and pretend you changed your profile pic in honour of Mini-Steel is that ok?

    I’ll see if he could get me through a chapter of the Merc variant. If I think he can then I’ll level him up! His animations and design are sick, always feels so cool to play him (as long as you don’t look at the damage, opponents health bar, or time elapsed)
